A simply wonderful, tasty, and simple dish to cook. This is a recipe that adapted from about 3 other recipes I have tried for Cacciatore. You can use chicken breasts as well, just cook the chicken an extra 10 to 15 minutes.
1. Pat dry the chicken pieces with a paper towel, in a shallow dish or pie plate, combine flour, salt and pepper, mix well.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil, when hot, dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mix, then add chicken pieces skin side down, brown for 5 minutes, turn and brown for another 5 minutes. If you can't fit all in the pan, brown in batches.
3. Once the chicken is browned, remove from the skillet to a plate and set aside. Reduce heat to medium, add bell pepper, onion, garlic, saute for 4-5 minutes until soft.
4. Add wine, reduce by half about 3-4 minutes.
5. Add chicken stock, cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer.
6. Add the capers, oregano, mix well, taste, add salt and pepper to taste, then return the chicken and coat completely. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes stirring occasionally.
7. Remove the chicken from the skillet to a serving platter, and increase the heat to medium-high bringing the sauce to a boil, cook stirring for 2-3 minutes until sauce slightly thickens, remove from heat and pour sauce over chicken.
8. Top with fresh chopped basil, serve with rice, noodles, or any side dish you like. Enjoy!
